Default Fuel help

Setup notes:
'97 Corvette Coupe
P1SC1 at 14lbs
427 stroker
mild cam
looks like it'll put 700hp to the wheels

Lingenfelter said a walbro255 with racetronix harness should work... it didn't
So we got the walbro400 and a msd voltage booster... still lost fuel pressure ????
Ordered the dual pump hanger, it is on the way...

Questions:
Do I hook up the walbro255 with racetronix as primary with the MSD to run the walbro400 under boost?
Will running 2 different pumps cause issues?
Run both together always?

Please offer some advice!! I wanna get this beast going finally!

Lose that MSD V/booster and get a kenne bell. The MSD one,s are junk they go out really fast. I have the stock pump then a ext/pump with the k.b. bop that only come on when in boost.
